There was also a small selection of vintage planes. All of them based in the Netherlands or In case of Fifi Kate temporarily at least.

First off the Beautifull Fifi Kate DC-3

The mighty Cat

Mitchell Delight

The lovely Spit (with eclipesed wings now!)

Noisy Beech

The Harvard with a sound that instantly puts a smile on your face

This was what was on display in the vintage section. Next up in Part 3 some modern day birds. Orions, Atlantique's and A Nimrod!

Nice. I noticed the Nimrod sneaking into the B25 pic!

One day there won't be any clipped wing Spits left if all the owners bolt wingtips on them!

Well done Souichiro...four of them I can relate to.

The Dak, the Beech, the Harvard and "the pig boat" the Canso.

Certainly brought back some memories Wink

Any more of the Spit? Grin

There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!

There we have that B-25 again from Eindhoven. I'll never forget him crossing the pattern when I was flying a downwind leg at EBZR. He crossed beneeth me. Angry
